This entire article assumes that "it is pretty inconvenient to have to put every single one of them into a password manager" and then goes on to make that case that it's preferable to check your email account or phone for a t

Jan Kaum tells an interesting story. Unfortunately, those are all empty words. This is the exact difference between privacy-by-policy as opposed to privacy-by-design. If WhatsApp truly wants to make good on its promise, it must deploy real
